I was doing the responsible thing by reading your post to make sure you hadn't already found the cure for cancer or saved the orphans. I don't want to duplicate work, now that would be wasteful!
Patents used to cover the implementation of an idea rather then the idea itself? I seriously doubt that Nintendo's implementation of these ideas is exactly the same as this companies..
I use it all the time traveling long distances on the Freeway.
Driving along a 2 lane (2 lanes in each direction) freeway in the left lane cruising at a little over the Speed Limit, and some jack ass decides to pull out in front of me so they can pass the person in front of them. I hit the breaks and slow down to 5 under the speed limit while they pass the guy while only driving 0.5 MPH faster then the person they are passing.... After they pull back over to the right, I press RESUME, the CC goes back to the correct speed and I repeat that about 1,000,000 more times on my trip....
3) Once cruise is cancelled, it can only be started again by going over 30MPH; and even then, you can only set it to the speed you are currently going at; not at a higher or lower speed. (So you have to reach the desired speed manually, then hit the button).
Come back when you have facts, not fabrications.
Odd, my car (not a Nissan), cruise control has a "Resume" feature. If CC gets canceled for some reason (#1 and #2 above), I press the Resume button and the CC accelerates back up to the speed it was set at. Turning the car off or turning the CC OFF, would reset the CC, but other then that it remembers where it was set.
Slashdot Mirror
I saw this video in 2009 when it first came out... the Article didn't seem to really have any new information.
What am I missing?
I prefer them Battered
If they are undecipherable languages, how do they verify the results are accurate?
What was that robot thinking?
Kill All Humans?
Yeah, that's maybe why I was only responding to the quoted part?
Both of those points are moot because you can use finger prints in the same way, and no one seems to have a problem with those...
- It uniquely identifies a person.
- It may be used against that person in the future, even if the person was innocent at the time of collection.
You mean like, oh.. I don't know... Fingerprints?

That they are treading on thin ice?
Don't worry, it will be. And probably a couple more times after that!
... before you lost your virginity...
You're making a pretty big assumption there....
They have wings at Hooters?

Troll? Really??
It's called HUMOR... or at least a feeble attempt at it :)
Just need to clean their telescope!
They are right under your fingers... you used them to type in your message, remember?
I thought my ears had gone mad at that line.
Umm, I think you're doing it wrong...
God, my head hurts.
See above.
Is naturally, LOGO!

It doesn't help the debate, it just makes it more likely to be accepted by /.
The more sensational the summary, the more likely it gets picked....
I've lived through the video game era.. (Yes, I'm that old!) No need to study what I experienced first hand.
Maybe read the actual article before choosing how to word the headline?
You must be new here...
We're number ONE!....
Oh wait....
What does Russell Crowe have to do with this again? Maybe you mean Kevin Costner?
Is /. turning into Fox News now?
